Calling all young detectives! 

Join medical students from Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School for an interactive escape-room adventure about emergency preparedness and safety!  Solve an exciting challenge, crack the secret code, and unlock a mystery prize to earn your Disaster Detective badge!

For families with kids in kindergarten and up.

Get ready for some spooky spending fun!  Kids will team up to face an imaginary challenge: planning the ultimate month of Halloween activities while using pretend money, making smart budgeting choices, and handling a few surprise tricks and treats along the way.  Financial literacy is a social determinant of health, and we’re getting kids off to a great start. This fun and educational game will be presented by the LIFT 4 KIDS team of medical students from Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School.  Light refreshments will be served.  

Join us for a special sensory-friendly hour at the library, held before public hours.

This dedicated time is designed to offer a quieter, calmer library experience for children, teens, and adults with sensory sensitivities, along with their families or guardians.

The library will be open only to registered participants during this hour, providing a safe, low-stimulation environment to browse, read, use the computers and explore before regular public hours begin.

Stop by the library to engage in crafts and activities to celebrate the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival!

Also known as the Moon Festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival is an annual holiday marking the fall harvest. The celebration usually involves lanterns and mooncakes; learn more at this library event.

This program is in partnership with APIDA Alliance.

Kids in kindergarten and up are invited to make some silly Halloween crafts with the library's awesome teen volunteers.  Choose from a bat mobile (no, not THE Batmobile!) or a creepy-cute magnet. Feel free to wear a Halloween costume!

Kits available to kids only while supplies last. 

Kids in kindergarten and up are invited to drop in and make a beautiful autumnal decoration!  Kits available to kids only, while supplies last.
